hi, i want to buy 2* hd 7990 cuz its the best card i can get right now for the money i have and i want to buy one of them first and the second one in the future when i have more money or when i need the second one.
im thinking of the corsair 500r case with 10 fans or the Cooler Master HAF X with 8 fans, which one if better for cooling and air flow?
also is there any gpu cooling that i can buy for these cards? or some sort of cooling for my system that whould be able to proparly cool them?

Do yourself a favour and don't buy 2 7990s. Once you start scaling Crossfire past 2 GPUs (each 7990 has 2) the gains drop off rapidly and most software isn't optimized for it. You can also end up with big pacing and latency issues. It's just not a good idea.

One 295x2 would be a better idea, and the close-loop cooler makes it easier to handle because it won't fill your case with hot air.

im buying from amazon and my budget for a gpu is not more than 300$ for a single gpu, the hd 7990 costs 290$ and the r9 290x costs 275$..
